Honouring an unwavering force in the movement to end the HIV epidemic
It is with profound sadness that the Foundation shares the news of the passing of our co-founder Stephen Lewis.
Stephen was a respected humanitarian who spent his life championing social justice and human rights. Throughout his political and international careers, he was committed to creating a more equitable world.
“We learned, early on, that the strength and resilience of communities and community projects is the road to hope, to empathy, to survival. The Stephen Lewis Foundation will never let its guard down. We know the tasks are herculean.”
— Stephen Lewis, Grassroots, 2021
